of thousands. the department of health and social care says we want to start these talks as soon as possible and are ready to meet over the weekend. we want to find a fair and reasonable settlement, that recognises the vital role of nhs workers, the wider economic pressures facing the uk and the prime minister's priority to hyperinflation. this is the second big breakthrough in england. the royal college of nursing started intensive pay talks with the government last month, and there are glimmers of hope elsewhere. ambulance union say there has been significant progress and have suspended strike action, all hell strikes in scotland have been paused and there are no further dates set in northern ireland. if this is all feeling like the beginning of the end of strikes, maybe notjust yet. junior doctors have three days in a row planned to serve, and the unions and pay talks if they fail, strikes

will be back with a vengeance. a teaching union has called off planned strike action after receiving a new pay offer from the scottish government. the educational institute of scotland will now hold a ballot on the deal which would see teachers get a 12.3% increase in pay by april, rising to 14% by 202a. it means 20 days of rolling strikes that had been planned in scotland have been suspended while members vote. senior doctors in england are being told by their union to ask for at least three times their basic pay to provide emergency cover forjunior colleagues, when they go on strike later this month. the advice issued by the british medical association has been described as "unreasonable" by nhs bosses, as they try to plug the gaps in emergency care during the 72 hours of industrial action. leaked messages reveal that the former health secretary, matt hancock, spent hours discussing how he could save his career after the sun published an image showing him kissing his aide while social distancing

restrictions were in place. the daily telegraph has printed whatsapp conversations from june 2021, in which mr hancock discusses with his advisers whether he's broken his own covid rules. they were leaked by the journalist isabel 0akeshott, who'd helped mr hancock write his book. 0ur political correspondent, ione wells, has more. the photograph that ended matt hancock's career as health secretary, and his marriage. mr hancock kissing his aide gina. and insight into the chaotic scramble in the hours that followed its appearance on the front page of the sun newspaper, the telegraph newspaper have published more of matt hancock's text messages, link to them by the journalist isabel 0akeshott, who was given them to help write his book. in one message is advisor at the time asks him to think very hard about whether he could have broken any rules. mr

hancock, the health secretary at the time, asks for clarification what exactly the covid guidance was at the time the photograph was taken. he says he cannot think of rules that were broken other than the guidance to keep a metre or more away from others. referencing the press, he said the worst they could do is say they kissed before the legalised hugs. they discuss the workplace guidance a place at the time it said workers should maintain social distancing where ever possible. is advisor points out that it was possible, clearly, from the picture. in a separate exchange, mr hancock seeks advice from the former chancellor about a resignation video he plans to publish. mr osborne says it is good but suggests he probably should include an apology to his loved ones. he eventually resigned in the video posted on twitter. i understand the enormous sacrifices that everybody in this country has made, then you have made, and those

of us who make these rules have got to stick by them, and that's why i've got to resign. mr to stick by them, and that's why i've got to resign.— i've got to resign. mr hancock's spokesperson _ i've got to resign. mr hancock's spokesperson said _ i've got to resign. mr hancock's spokesperson said it _ i've got to resign. mr hancock's spokesperson said it is - i've got to resign. mr hancock's spokesperson said it is highly . spokesperson said it is highly intrusive and inappropriate that these messages have been published and that they reveal nothing new, but the messages show he and his team were aware he could have breached the guidance that tried to find ways to justify what happened, shining a light on how a minister and his closest aides planned a crisis. meanwhile, mps investigating the conduct of the former prime minister borisjohnson, say he may have misled parliament multiple times over gatherings at downing street during the pandemic. the privileges committee said it had seen evidence that strongly suggests covid rule breaches would have been obvious to mrjohnson. but he maintains he never knowingly or recklessly misled mps, and is due to give evidence next month. newly—released cctv footage from a train in england has revealed a shocking near miss at a pedestrian level crossing earlier this year.

the lights are flashing, the barrier comes down, and a motorcyclist with a passengerjumped the lights, a criminal offence, just ahead of the train. here is the same incident from another angle. the driver had to make an emergency stop and compose himself before carrying on with the journey. compose himself before carrying on with thejourney. network compose himself before carrying on with the journey. network rail says no matter how well you think you know the crossing, it is worth thinking about these points. concentrate, it is easy to get distracted especially my phones, music and conversation. always follow the signs and instructions displayed at level crossings and pay attention to lights, barriers and alarms. take both ways before crossing, there is a train coming to not trust. cross quickly, keeping children close and dogs on a lead. by children close and dogs on a lead. by raising awareness, train companies hope to reduce delays, protect their drivers, and stop preventable accidents. the actor tom sizemore, best known for his roles in saving private ryan and black hawk down, has died aged 61. he'd been in a coma

is a terrible look wicked. there are too many of you lot, we need to have a word about that is what he is caught he has completely and categorically denied the allegation, and did so again when giving evidence for the first time here yesterday. however, the former yorkshire captain who retired in 2009 did apologise for the death dusting historical tweets brought to his attention in a 2021 bbc interview. there was a big shock in super league as reigning champions st helens were stunned by a last—minute drop goal in their match against leeds rhinos, the team they beat in last year's grand final. blake austin was the man who put the ball between the sticks for the rhinos with just seconds left on the clock. that was leeds' first win of the season and a first defeat for saints who, just a couple of weeks ago, were crowned the best club side in the world. a bad night for the saints

in rugby union's premiership. a different saints. northampton saints were on the end of real mauling by bristol bears, who won 62 points to 8, at ashton gate. it's the biggest win of the season, and bristol's biggest ever in the top division, scoring nine tries, harry randall with two of them. northampton did go ahead briefly, but it was one—way traffic from then, the win moving them to eighth with northampton losing ground on the top two. formula 1 is back this weekend. we have had practice. red bull's max verstappen is favourite for a third consecutive world title, but he didn't have it all his own way in practice on friday. he was just behind fernando alonso who has joined the aston martin team this season. it was a disappointing day for lewis hamilton and his mercedes team—mate george russell. remember we said hamilton was only eighth quickest. they expect a difficult start to the season,.

one small bit of good news for the 7—time world champion, though — he's been given permission to wear a nose stud while racing despite a ban on drivers wearing jewellery in their car. stewards in bahrain grand prix have given hamilton a medical exemption to leave his studs in place, which is big u—turn after taking a hard line on jewellery last season. the official line is, and this is the quote, there were concerns about disfigurement. if hamilton had to keep pulling in and out the nose stud so they have given this exemption. igrate stud so they have given this exemption-— stud so they have given this exem tion. ~ ., �* ., exemption. we don't let charlie where his nose _ exemption. we don't let charlie where his nose stud _ exemption. we don't let charlie where his nose stud on - exemption. we don't let charlie | where his nose stud on the sofa. exemption. we don't let charlie i where his nose stud on the sofa. no, it would where his nose stud on the sofa. iifr, it would glisten in the lights. all the big dangling hearing. it wouldn't work in a motor racing helmet —— earring. they are in a safe place. you can put them on as another programme finishes. he's not impressed, is he... 630 is

burst into red and yellow, the windows and walls shook. no—one knew what to do, in the skies above us, helicopters swarmed and multiplied. we watched as tanks rolled and. millions of people fled. they packed into overcrowded trains while thousands more waited on platforms. men had to stay behind so families and loved ones were separated. many people reached other countries and found safety. but some of us couldn't or didn't, and now, this is our life.

(siren wails) is that an air raid siren? so we just heard an so wejust heard an air raid siren, which means we have to go outside. we can see the kids are all going to be lining up, and they don't look very scared, they are used to this, the sirens go off pretty often, so this is something they deal with all the time at school, and we're all going to head down to basement underneath the school, which is the safest place to be. the teachers are on the phones trying to get some more information to find out what is

happening. playing games, dancing, carrying on with your lessons, there is a lot here in this shelter to keep your mind off the air raid warning, and this is one school. the air raid alert we heard went off in villages, towns and cities across ukraine, an entire country's children sheltering at the same time. then, after a few hours below ground, we are told the danger is over, and everyone can return to their classrooms. everything goes back to normal. but this war, the biggest in europe since world war ii, is now a year old. biggest in europe since world war ii, is nowa year old. a biggest in europe since world war ii, is now a year old. a year since russian president vladimir putin

ordered his armies to invade ukraine, a year of our attacks, destroyed homes, of uncertainty for the future. a year waiting for a normal childhood to begin again. i am here in ukraine to hear the children's story, their own thoughts in their own words about one year of war. viol is 13, she tells me she loves playing the piano in her spare time. when the war started her village was taken over by the russian army. she wants to share what has happened to her and her family. what has happened to her and her famil . . ,, . what has happened to her and her famil . e ,, e , , what has happened to her and her famil. ee ,,, family. translation: this is my house near— family. translation: this is my house near kyiv, _ family. translation: this is my house near kyiv, every _ family. translation: this is my house near kyiv, every morning i| house near kyiv, every morning i help monitor the cleaning and shopping before i walk to school. we

first heard them talking about war on tv, i was worried but we didn't think it would happen to us. then, early one morning, when the sky was still dark, our lives changed for ever. danger crept into our village. the russian military were coming. my mother and father covered their windows with blankets as we head indoors. the sound of gunfire went all day long, in the moments of silence, i would all day long, in the moments of silence, iwould peek all day long, in the moments of silence, i would peek behind the curtains to have a look outside. mum would take pictures of the russian soldiers and send them to friends who would forward them to the ukrainian military. shortly afterwards, the russians were targeted by our artillery. mum began to worry the russians would find out what we did, then one night, we felt a huge explosion. it hit the top of

my bedroom, shook the house and workers up. smoke—filled our kitchen where mum was standing, she was trying to put out the flames, she told us to leave, i grabbed my sister and we ran. we didn't even have time to look back at our house, and we didn't know where we were going, and so we kept running to other people �*s' gardens, the sound of bullets whistling at our feet, we kept moving. that's when we found help. a man was helping families to evacuate to be climbed into his car and drove as fast as we could out of the village, but then his car ran out of electricity, we were stuck on the road, i saw cars on fire, people lying inside them, what was going to happen to us? it was chaos. 0ur

drive stopped at the edge of the village, the car was crowded, there were nine of us packed inside, but were nine of us packed inside, but we made it. we survived. when the fighting in our village stops, we drove back home, i remember seeing our house for the first time, it was completely destroyed, but ella was still there, looked after by a neighbour, she reminds us of how normal our lives used to be. she invited me _ normal our lives used to be. she invited me to _ normal our lives used to be. she invited me to come and see where her home once stood by the memories of what happened here are hard for her to relive. it's a lot for viol to come back here, and to look at what is left of her house, and there is very little left. is deeply

upsetting for her as well but at the same time, she wants to share her story with us, to tell the world what has happened to her and lots of other children here in ukraine, but it really is not easy. this is where you had to run, to run away? you rent here? viol and her family still spent time here trying to imagine what life will be like when her home is

rebuilt. 0r will be like when her home is rebuilt. or they can do for now is wait. an hour away, we meet dimitri. his town was also occupied by russian soldiers. when the fighting started here his family and their neighbours head in garages on the edge of the town, hoping there might be safer. but russian shelling began, a young boy and his father in the garaged next door were killed. dimitri's family had to run to find somewhere else to hide the.

0n on their way, the family saw that this building, then home had also been hit. they made their way to a basement in a nearby preschool building where they stayed, on and off, for two months, sharing the space with 270 others. the conditions were difficult, food and clean water were limited.

the community here are at constant

risks of attack from the air. the child has to be used regularly. it a more comfortable place for children to stay. dimitri is looking forward to stay. dimitri is looking forward to a time where he no longer needs to a time where he no longer needs to come down here. the family are now living with dimitri's grandma close by. he tells me rockets and missiles constantly by over their apartment, but for now, the family are safer and moving forward as best they can.

west of kyiv, two hours by car, is another city. the skies are allowed hereto. many travelling away from the fighting that is still going on in the east past through here. sales have made their mark. 0ne hitting here —— missiles. this was once the city's main school. it is thought that more than 5 million children just like those who attended here have had their education disrupted because of the war. it is have had their education disrupted because of the war.— because of the war. it is very sad honestly because _ because of the war. it is very sad honestly because this _ because of the war. it is very sad honestly because this place i because of the war. it is very sad honestly because this place used j because of the war. it is very sad i honestly because this place used to be my second home for a long period of time. i am getting really upset every time i am coming here and see my school in such a condition. it is so difficult — my school in such a condition. it is so difficult for _ my school in such a condition. it is so difficult for me _ my school in such a condition. it is so difficult for me because i really like this— so difficult for me because i really like this school and the school

do you feel happy now you can see all your friends? do you feel happy now you can see all yourfriends? how does it make you feel? being together again is making the students smile, and teachers are trying hard to help the children forget about the war for a moment. they have changed a few things like the sound of the school bell. loud noises could sound like a siren, so instead, they play music.

while there is no sirens and it is time to have a break, everyone is enjoying lunch. but for millions of other children in ukraine, something

as ordinary as being in school with your friends isn't possible. as ordinary as being in school with yourfriends isn't possible. either ongoing fighting or school buildings being destroyed means online lessons only, and for others, even that is impossible. there is no school of any sort. near three, i nearthree, iam near three, i am in a town that has become known all around the world because of the awful things that happened here. when the war began, president putin's plan was to use the russian army to quickly take over kyiv, remove the ukrainian government and put his own people in charge. pretend's �*s plan failed. ukraine's army first stop the russian military and then push them back on here. and when the russians were forced out, then it became clear that something terrible

happened right here. this boy was born in bucha. he lives in this apartment with his mum. the town is usually quiet. there is a school, i hythe street and a few shops. this is the view from his house now, a reminder of what happened in march last year. he showed me a video of how much of his hometown was destroyed. and you can still kind of make out the fire on the trees, the fences have burnt...

it is thought russian soldiers killed more than 400 people in bucha. in war, there are laws. 0ne bucha. in war, there are laws. one of the most important is that civilians, people like you and me who are not solders are not fighting, are protected. russian forces are accused of deliberately killing civilians here, which is a war crime. the russian government says that the ukrainian authorities

faked what happened, but that claim cannot be backed up with any facts. instead, journalists and international lawyers trained to investigate war crimes found evidence that matched what the people of bucha say took place. the people of this town witnessed utter devastation and a lot of suffering as well. but there are signs of hope. homes are being built again and this boy is really happy about that.

the war leaves little opportunity for children to have a normal childhood and do all the things they enjoy. this group has been set up to help them relax. it is a place they can talk, play and create. all the children here... are having a good time. they are smiling, they are relaxed, and it is not something they experience very often because of everything that is going on at the moment, lots of the dads and mums out fighting on the frontline, and this is a chance for them to relax, to be happy, to be a kid. it is so lovely to see.

laughter

nobody knows what the long—term impact on children will be, and nobody knows when this war is going to end. but what is clear is that the children i've met despite everything have hope and a determination to carry on. i have come back to visit viola. she and herfamily wanted to come back to visit viola. she and her family wanted to show me where they are living now. a temporary home with many others was houses were also destroyed. look at this! it family has a warm room to sleep in and store what belongings they have.

what do you miss the most from your home? you said you don't want anyone else to experience what you went through. why do you say that?

viola may not be able to play the piano at home, but she can play at church.

good morning, welcome to breakfast with rachel burden and charlie stayt. 0ur headlines today: planned strikes by tens of thousands of ambulance workers in england and wales are called off so unions can have fresh talks with the government. more leaked whatsapp messages reveal the discussions within government, after photos were published showing matt hancock kissing his aide during the pandemic. inches from tragedy — a fresh warning over level crossing safety, after a heart—stopping near miss.

(limp. morning, we will be under a cloud this weekend, a few showers around and it will feel quite chilly, but next week, it will be even colder, we have snow and ice on the forecast, joined me later for all the details. good morning, three unions representing up to 45,000 health workers have suspended a series of strikes after a government offer for talks on pay. the next walkout was due to happen on monday. the welsh ambulance service has also agreed to suspend action for further talks. our health correspondent catherine burns reports. nhs staff started striking in december but things have scaled up recently, so this

is what we were expecting in england next week — more ambulance and other nhs workers walking out over two days. 0ne union, the gmb, said it would cut back on cover for category two calls including the heart attacks and strokes, but not anymore. we have had a significant development in this dispute, so from the start of the dispute what we have been asking for is for the government to meet with the health unions and seriously negotiate on pay for this dispute but also on next year's pay, and that is the offer that we have now received from the department of health. so the gmb and unison have agreed to call up plans to strike next week, saying —— same two for the charters of piety of physiotherapy later in the month. another union is going ahead with the walkout but this will involve a few thousand staff instead of tens of thousands.

the department of health and social care says we want to start these talks as soon as possible and are ready to meet over the weekend. we want to find a fair and reasonable settlement, that recognises the vital role of nhs workers, the wider economic pressures facing the uk and the prime minister's priority to hyperinflation. this is the second big breakthrough in england. the royal college of nursing started intensive pay talks with the government last month, and there are glimmers of hope elsewhere. ambulance unions in wales say there has been significant progress and have suspended strike action. all health strikes in scotland have been paused and there are no further dates set in northern ireland. but if this is all feeling like the beginning of the end of strikes, maybe notjust yet. junior doctors have three days in a row planned to serve, and the unions in pay

talks say if they fail, strikes will be back with a vengeance. a teaching union has called off planned strike action after receiving a new pay offer from the scottish government. the educational institute of scotland will now hold a ballot on the deal which would see teachers get a 12.3% increase in pay by april, rising to 14% by 2024. it means 20 days of rolling strikes that had been planned in scotland have been suspended while members vote. senior doctors in england are being told by their union to ask for at least three times their basic pay to provide emergency cover forjunior colleagues, when they go on strike later this month. the advice issued by the british medical association has been described as "unreasonable" by nhs bosses, as they try to plug the gaps in emergency care during the 72 hours of industrial action. leaked messages reveal that the former health secretary, matt hancock, spent hours discussing how he could save his career, after the sun published an image showing him kissing his aide while social distancing restrictions were in place. the daily telegraph

has printed whatsapp conversations from june 2021, in which mr hancock discusses with his advisers whether he's broken his own covid rules. 0ur political correspondent, ione wells, has more. the photograph that ended matt hancock's career as health secretary, and his marriage. mr hancock kissing his aide gina. now, insight into the chaotic scramble in the hours that followed its appearance on the front page of the sun newspaper, the telegraph newspaper have published more of matt hancock's text messages, link to them by the journalist isabel 0akeshott, who was given them to help write his book. in one message his advisor at the time damon poole asks him to think very hard about whether he could have broken any rules. mr hancock, the health secretary at the time, asks for clarification about what exactly the covid guidance was at the time the photograph was taken. he says he cannot think of rules

that were broken other than the guidance to keep a metre or more away from others. referencing the press, he said the worst they could do is say they kissed before they legalised hugs. they discussed the workplace guidance a place at the time it said workers should maintain social distancing where ever possible. his advisor points out that it was possible, clearly, from the picture. in a separate exchange, mr hancock seeks advice from the former chancellor george 0sbourne about a resignation video he plans to publish. mr osborne says it is good but suggests he probably should include an apology to his loved ones. he eventually resigned in the video posted on twitter. i understand the enormous sacrifices that everybody in this country has made, then you have made, and those of us who make these rules have got to stick by them, and that's why i've got to resign.

mr hancock's spokesperson said it is highly intrusive and inappropriate that these messages have been published and that they reveal nothing new, but the messages show he and his team were aware he could have breached the guidance that tried to find ways to justify what happened, shining a light on how a minister and his closest aides planned a crisis. meanwhile, mps investigating the conduct of the former prime minister borisjohnson, say he may have misled parliament multiple times over gatherings at downing street during the pandemic. we can get the latest on this now with our political correspondent charlotte rose. charlotte, what more do we know? more messages this morning, and you could spend hours going through them all but what are you picking out, what is important today? this report has been produced _ what is important today? this report has been produced by _ what is important today? this report has been produced by cross-party i has been produced by cross—party group of mps on the privileges committee, and what they are not looking at is the issue of lockdown parties per se because that was all

investigated last year by the senior civil servant sue bray and the metropolitan police. what they are looking at specifically is whether borisjohnson looking at specifically is whether boris johnson misled looking at specifically is whether borisjohnson misled parliament in the statements he made at the time, and they say the report is based on evidence they gathered including photographs, e—mails, 46 what's up messages, supplied to them by boris johnson's lawyers, and interviews with 23 eyewitnesses. borisjohnson has said this report totally vindicates him on the committee has found absolutely no evidence that he misled parliament but if you read the report, that is not what appears to be saying and the most difficult line for the former prime minister is this one, seeing the evidence strongly suggests that breaches of the guidance would have been obvious to mrjohnson at the time he was at the gatherings. borisjohnson told parliament that no rules were broken and that the guidance was followed at all times, the committee says it should have been clear to him that this was not the case. this is an

initial report, borisjohnson is due to appear before this committee to answer follow—up questions and if it is found that he has misled parliament it will be down to mps to vote on what sanction he should get including being suspended from parliament. newly—released cctv footage from a train in northern england has revealed a shocking near miss at a pedestrian level crossing earlier this year. network rail, which released the video, is asking people to be much more vigilant near railways, warning that the incident you're about to see could so easily have ended in tragedy. aru na iyengar reports. imagine that you are the train driver, coming up is a footpath level crossing, a man crosses the track right in front of you. the train can be travelling at 125mph on this stretch near runcorn. missed it? let's see it again. slowed down this time, it's clear the man could so easily

have been hit. it happened injanuary, just before 11:00 in the morning, the entrance to the crossing shows a red light when it is not safe to cross, but the man ignored it. network rail says when people are in familiar settings, they sometimes don't concentrate or take warnings seriously. this is todington in west sussex, february 21, 3:00 in the afternoon. the lights are flashing, the barrier comes down, and a motorcyclist with a passengerjumps the lights — a criminal offence — just ahead of the train. here is the same incident from another angle. the driver had to make an emergency stop and compose himself before carrying on with the journey. network rail says no matter how well you think you know the crossing, it is worth thinking about these points. concentrate. it is easy to get distracted, especially by phones, music and conversation. always follow the signs and instructions displayed at level crossings and pay attention to lights, barriers and alarms. check both ways before crossing,

there is a train coming do not cross. cross quickly, keeping children close and dogs on a lead. by raising awareness, train companies hope to reduce delays, protect their drivers, and stop preventable accidents. the actor tom sizemore, best known for his roles in saving private ryan and black hawk down, has died aged 61. he'd been in a coma since suffering a ruptured brain aneurysm last month. in a statement, his brother paul said: "i am deeply saddened by the loss of my big brother tom. "he has influenced my life more than anyone i know." an investigation is under way after a fire broke out on friday afternoon on a ferry sailing between dover and calais, leaving 183 passengers and crew stranded on board. they are unharmed. at one point those on board were told to muster at the lifeboats. simon jones told to muster at the lifeboats.

ferry, once the fire had been put out, put it anchored down, but during the night, it has been towed by a tug heading towards the port of calais. i havejust checked by a tug heading towards the port of calais. i have just checked and by a tug heading towards the port of calais. i havejust checked and it isjust calais. i havejust checked and it is just a few miles of the coast of northern france of the priority now is to get the 183 people on board off and on to shore safely. irish ferries say an investigation will take place once the ferry arrives in calais and also the firm will be able to assess more clearly the extent of the damage. i think it is inevitable this ferry will be out of service for quite some time, i ferries are apologising to passengers caught up in the drama overnight at sea. detectives in northern ireland have been granted until tomorrow evening to question two men arrested in connection with the shooting of an off—duty police officer in 0magh last week. police believe the dissident republican group, the new ira, was behind the attack. officers have questioned and subsequently released six other men. detective chief inspectorjohn caldwell remains in a critical

week, and i will show you that in a moment. this weekend, a lot of cloud around once again and probably a few more showers as a head into tomorrow. a few showers coming into northern scotland dragging down into eastern scotland and eastern coastal areas of england. there will be a lot of cloud. sunshine in western scotland and perhaps western friends of england and wales. temperatures are not changed much at all over the past five, six days or so. around seven to nine degrees. 0vernight tonight, a lot of cloud around, giving us a few more showers. if the cloud breaks, temperatures will be below freezing. we should just about stay above freezing by the time we get to sunday morning. but it will be a cold start to the dive. a lot of cloud around once again. a few more showers breaking out here and there, some brighter skies across ctrl and southern scotland, writer for northern ireland and for the

north—west of england. a cold day, temperatures generally the six and seven. next week it will feel cold because we have a stronger wind coming in and that will bring with it the risk of some snow and ice. the winds are coming all the way from the arctic, a strengthening northerly wind for the start of next week will push colder air across the whole of the country and bring that risk of snow and ice. colder air starts to arrive behind this meant the frontier that arrives across northern parts of scotland. it takes a mixture of rain and sleet and snow. temperatures may be nine degrees. following that, some snow to lower level than scotland. by the time we get to tuesday, this is where the band of cloud and rain is across southern part of england. 0therwise some sunshine. look at these snow showers coming into

northern scotland and down the north sea coasts as well. it may be dry, temperatures four or five degrees on tuesday and they should be quite a bit of sunshine. when you factor in the cold arctic wind, it will feel much, much colder than that. across northern and eastern scotland and the north—east of england, at the moment we have yellow weather warnings from the met office for snow and ice. some disruption. highest falls will be across northern scotland, would be as much as 20 centimetres of snow by the end of tuesday. the snow extent is quite limited, but for all of us early next week, it will feel a lot colder. back to you two. thank you very much. a teenage boy from london has spent a year trying to recreate photographs originally taken by his grandmother almost 70 years ago. from framing to composition, philip loveday has been following in her footsteps around the capital, trying to replicate the exact same pictures she captured,

help people have a place to come, her people to speak to, but also, we want to help people with this awful cost of living crisis, and one way that we know we can do that is by talking about slow cookers. because they are on a slow heat consistently throughout the day, they use far, far less energy than your oven. so it builds up the heat and stays consistent throughout the day, which means it uses a lot less energy than if you put on the oven for 20 minutes at 200 degrees to then turn off 20 minutes later. i minutes at 200 degrees to then turn off 20 minutes later.— off 20 minutes later. i hear that there might _ off 20 minutes later. i hear that there might be _ off 20 minutes later. i hear that there might be a _ off 20 minutes later. i hear that there might be a surprise i off 20 minutes later. i hear that there might be a surprise at i off 20 minutes later. i hear that there might be a surprise at the off 20 minutes later. i hear that i there might be a surprise at the end of today's workshop?— of today's workshop? ladies think the are of today's workshop? ladies think they are coming _ of today's workshop? ladies think they are coming from _ of today's workshop? ladies think they are coming from an - of today's workshop? ladies think i they are coming from an educational talk for the what they don't know if they have all three meals, all the ingredients to make them as a surprise and they will be taking home a brand—new slow cooker age. the free? for home a brand-new slow cooker age. the free? ., home a brand-new slow cooker age. the free?- lucy _ home a brand-new slow cooker age.

are ready to invest in your career, we can see you have potential and we want to help you do that, so that was a major mark of trust and confidence boost for me. all the credit has to go to the players, that's another boring answer for you but i'm not the one who is smashing around the pitch. i do simple things, ijust try around the pitch. i do simple things, i just try and steady around the pitch. i do simple things, ijust try and steady myself and be myself and make sure everyone enjoys it. is and be myself and make sure everyone en'o s it. , , ., .,, ., enjoys it. is unbeaten run has now them dreaming — enjoys it. is unbeaten run has now them dreaming of— enjoys it. is unbeaten run has now them dreaming of european - enjoys it. is unbeaten run has now. them dreaming of european football, and as the architect of their upturn and as the architect of their upturn and the youngest manager in the top five leagues, he is free to plot his own future. if five leagues, he is free to plot his own future-— five leagues, he is free to plot his own future. if someone asks you if ou want own future. if someone asks you if you want to _ own future. if someone asks you if you want to work _ own future. if someone asks you if you want to work on _ own future. if someone asks you if you want to work on the _ own future. if someone asks you if you want to work on the premier. you want to work on the premier league, well, this is the championship and i will do the championship and i will do the championship and i will do the championship and take whatever comes, but obviously, england is home to me, and one day, it is the dream of any kid to be working in england, so year. if

really enjoyed it but i'm not particularly happy with this result. but yes, it was still amazing to get a medal and bring but yes, it was still amazing to get a medaland bring it but yes, it was still amazing to get a medal and bring it home. the way i have been running all of these 60 metres is a lot better than i did in my 100 metres outdoor, so i already know this indoor season, i mean an amazing place heading into my outdoor season and i felt like today i would have liked more from myself, but i'm happy, it's a bronze medal and i am grateful. and the women's 3000m was another good race for the brits. melissa courtney—bryant tried to cling on to the pace, butjust ran out of steam in the end, claiming another bronze for britain's tally. her teammate hannah nuttall wasn't too far behind, finishing in fifth with a personal best. the former england cricket captain michael vaughan says the disciplinary hearing into allegations of racism at yorkshire is a "terrible look" for cricket. vaughan is accused of saying "there's too many of you lot, we need to have a word about that" to azeem rafiq and three other asian players at yorkshire before a t20 match in 2009. vaughan has "completely and categorically" denied the allegation, and did so again when giving evidence for the first time in the hearing yesterday.

however, the former yorkshire captain, who retired in 2009, did apologise for some historical tweets. now, there was revenge in the air in rugby league, as reigning super league champions st helens were stunned by a last minute drop goal in their match against leeds rhinos — the team they beat in last year's grand final. blake austin was the man who put the ball between the sticks for the rhinos with just seconds left on the clock. that was leeds' first win of the season and a first defeat for saints who, just a couple of weeks ago, were crowned the best club side in the world. formula one is back this weekend. red bull's max verstappen is favourite for a third consecutive world title, but he didn't have it all his own way in practice on friday. he was just behind fernando alonso, who's joined the aston martin team this season. it was a disappointing day for lewis hamilton and his mercedes team mate george russell. hamilton was only eighth quickest, with the seven times world champion, underlining what we mentioned

yesterday, that they expect a difficult start to the season. one small bit of good news for the seven—time world champion, though. he's been given permission to keep his nose stud in while racing despite a ban on drivers wearing jewellery in theircar. stewards in bahrain grand prix have given hamilton a medical exemption, to leave his studs in place, which is big u—turn after taking a hard line onjewellery last season. you have to understand, is not going to help him in anyway, but there is a ban onjewellery to help him in anyway, but there is a ban on jewellery the whole. hews a ban on 'ewellery the whole. news has a ban on jewellery the whole. news has reached — a ban on jewellery the whole. news has reached me _ a ban on jewellery the whole. news has reached me that _ a ban on jewellery the whole. news has reached me that mike - a ban on jewellery the whole. news has reached me that mike bushell has headed up the 60 metres sprint, we don't have the pictures and we won't reveal your time yet because it has happened in the past. this reveal your time yet because it has happened in the past.— happened in the past. this was an indoor meeting _ happened in the past. this was an indoor meeting in _ happened in the past. this was an indoor meeting in birmingham, i happened in the past. this was an i indoor meeting in birmingham, the best in the country over 60 metres.

not been through it before. marvellous. let us have a look at the weather for the weekend. you have all sorts of news for us. tell us. a chilly weekend for us but it has been over the past week or so, may a few showers. this was a picture taken early this morning here in fife. a lovely scene actually but not a great deal of sunshine around today. we are stuck under a blanket of cloud and it is just thick enough to give a few light showers across northern and eastern scotland. some of these will get pushed down into eastern was part of england. if there is any sunshine, it will be across western areas, but it looks like it will be cloudy. many bases may well be dry and temperate as our stock where they have been the last few days around seven or eight degrees. we keep a lot of cloud around overnight. if anything it may thicken up a little bit more. a few more light showers occurring, may turning a bit wintry over higher part in them. if the cloud breaks, a

touch of frost, but images will be around two or three degrees as we start a cold sunday morning. a great deal of cloud again on sunday, maybe a few more showers breaking out as well. perhaps some sunshine in central and southern scotland. it is getting a little bit colder on sunday. establishes a degree or so lower, typically sitting at six or seven degrees. things get much colderfor seven degrees. things get much colder for next seven degrees. things get much colderfor next week, seven degrees. things get much colder for next week, wins will pick up colder for next week, wins will pick up and bring some snow and ice across some parts of the country. we are getting the winds coming all the way from the arc, that northerly wind will be strengthening through monday and tuesday and it will be turning colder. the colder air starts to arrive actually tomorrow night behind this band of wet weather here. the weather front wheel pushed south into monday and bring with it a mixture of rain, sleet and snow. snow showers following into northern scotland

through monday. further south, temperatures as high as nine degrees but that wet weather will continue, leading to a frosty start on tuesday and still somewhat weather across southern part of england for a while. otherwise some sunshine on tuesday, a lot of snow showers coming into northern scotland and down the north seacoast as well. many bases may be dry, it is only four or five degrees but when you factor in that stronger wind, all the way from the arctic, look how it will feel. it will feel much, much colder. we have some snow and ice risk for the early part of next week. that is more across northern and eastern scotland and the north—east of england, could bring some travel disruption. many other parts of the country bad. but it will feel a lot colder and we will find some widespread frost as well. back to you two. find some widespread frost as well. ltack to you two-— back to you two. thank you very much. back to you two. thank you very much- we _ back to you two. thank you very much. we will— back to you two. thank you very much. we will see _ back to you two. thank you very much. we will see you - back to you two. thank you very much. we will see you later. - now on breakfast, it's time for newswatch.

hello and welcome to newswatch with me, samira ahmed. coming up... why has a technological upgrade left some viewers without access to regional news programmes? and do we need to be shown what a packet of sausages looks like? first, politicaljournalists have been busy this week following up a string of revelations in the daily telegraph. here's bbc political editor chris mason on wednesday's news at ten. matt hancock's phone is revealing an insight into the private conversations in government as covid swept the country. and the then health secretary was centre stage. first, turning to what's happening here in the uk. after the pandemic, mr hancock worked with this journalist, isabel 0akeshott, to write a book about it, and gave her his text messages. she has now given them to the daily telegraph.

that was despite ms oakeshott having signed an agreement not to reveal the messages because she said they are in the public interest. a spokesperson for mr hancock said the leaks offer partial accounts obviously spun with an agenda action. because bbcjournalists hadn't seen the messages themselves, they were initially somewhat limited in what they could report, which prompted sanghera to write: but later, there was criticism of too much coverage from elizabeth smith, who begged: and mack wood agreed:

if the prominence of matt hancock in this week's news was a reminder of political times past, so too was his speech at a global power conference by his former boss, borisjohnson, part of which was shown live on the news channel on thursday. nothing and no—one is going to stop me reciting the song of the oompa—loompas about augustus gloop, which you all remember. # augustus gloop, augustus gloop # the great big greedy nincompoop. that made me weep with laughter as a child. and, frankly, i'd be very surprised if anybody at sis in vauxhall behaved towards moneypenny. but that doesn't mean we should be banned from reading fleming's novels. not everyone welcomed the reappearance of the former prime minister, with janet edwards asking:

we mentioned a couple of weeks ago complaints about hugh edwards and reeta chakrabarti travelling from london to edinburgh to present news bulletins on the day of nicola sturgeon's resignation, and that this practice of flying news anchors out on location was a regular source of irritation. so regular, in fact, that it happened again last week. jeremy, you're live in kyiv as we approach the one—year anniversary on friday. simple question, really, but a complicated answer, i suspect. who's winning? clive murray there, presenting the news at ten from ukraine, where he was all last week. the weary response of mike mckinnon:

well, we asked bbc news, not for the first time, why it was felt necessary to send news presenters off on location in that way. they told us: do let us know your thoughts on anything we're covering in this programme or on any aspect of bbc news. there will be details of how to contact us

at the end of the programme. you have already been letting us know your views on our new studio, as invited, and here are a couple of comments about, well, this sofa. first, john telfer: and irene mackinnon wondered: we can reassurejohn that this is actually a different, though admittedly rather similar sofa to that used on breakfast. and in answer to irene, i am very much hoping to have some guests to share it with in the coming weeks, and besides, several other bbc programmes use this studio as well. now, for a long while, views have asked us why it hasn't been possible to watch english regional news programmes in high definition

despite those bulletins being among the most watched programmes on bbc 1. cost and the pace of technological change have been the answers. but on newswatch last summer, we heard a commitment from the bbc�*s director of nations, rhodri telford davies, that hd for the regions would soon arrive. but as costs begin to reduce, and of course, audience expectation changes, we need to get this right. so i would like to believe that all our english regions will be available on 101 in hd on your epg at home by early next year. that promise has been kept and, as of last week, all standard definition regional bbc one channels on satellite have been replaced by high definition. freeview and youview viewers in england will also be switched over in the next couple of months. and that means that if you're still watching an sd, what you'll see at the end of the news at six or the news at ten, something like this... now, it's time to join our colleagues across the nations and regions for the news where you are. from the ten team,

it's goodnight. announcer: the bbc will soon be making all of its services available | in high definition. to access local bbc one programmes, you will need to upgrade to a high definition enabled set top box. though this is progress in the eyes of many people, it's led to objections from others. ruth windsor emailed us last week to ask: and doug gillies added:

well, the answer is for viewers with sd—only satellite set—top boxes to get a new hd—enabled set—top box. the bbc did put out a press release about this in november, which also advised that all standard—definition bbc channels on satellite platforms, notjust the regional ones, will be switched off in a year's time. it has set up a help scheme for those impacted by the changes who need extra information, details of which can be found at: and the press release explains the move like this: a viewer complained recently on newswatch that explaining terms like inflation and cabinet reshuffle to the audience

was unnecessary and condescending, assuming an excessively low level of knowledge. but when we aired that opinion, we had something of a backlash from those who appreciated things being clarified and spelt out. the issue reared its head again this week following a piece to camera from ireland correspondent emma vardy about the new windsor framework deal on the northern ireland protocol. the deal also affects what products customers can buy in their weekly shop because the eu's ban on certain goods like chilled meats entering northern ireland has been scrapped. so for shoppers, it means that things like sausages from britain or haggis from scotland can be sold on northern ireland's shelves, and for parcels being sent from britain to northern ireland, there'll be no need for customs declarations. the response of david harvey:

finally, the visit of president biden to meet president zelensky in kyiv last week prompted some diplomatic analysis from robin brandt for the news channel. here's what he actually said. and that is china's most senior diplomat, wang yi, travelling to moscow today, i think to meet sergei lavrov or maybe even vladimir putin. but that reference to the veteran russian foreign minister, sergei lavrov, completely foxed the bbc�*s live subtitling system, thanks to its audio recognition software that came out on screen as "i think to meet sergei lover of or vladimir putin." angela lewington took this screengrab for us, commenting wryly:

thank you for all your comments this week. if you want to share your opinions about what you see or hear on bbc news, on tv, radio, online and social media, email newswatch@bbc.co.uk or you can find us on twitter at newswatch bbc. you can call us on 0370106676. and do have a look at our website for previous interviews — bbc.co.uk/newswatch. that's all from us. we'll be back to hear your thoughts about bbc news coverage again next week. goodbye.

good morning. welcome to breakfast with rachel burden and charlie stayt. our headlines today. planned strikes by tens of thousands of ambulance workers in england and wales are called off, so unions can have fresh talks with the government. more leaked whatsapp messages reveal the discussions within government, after photos were published showing matt hancock kissing his aide during the pandemic. an extension on help with bills, with the government's energy price guarantee scheme expected to now last until the summer. inches from tragedy. . .a fresh warning over level crossing safety, after a heart—stopping near miss. chelsea host leeds this afternoon. some fans calling time on boss

graham potter. there will be a few showers this weekend, next week it will be colder. snow and ice in the forecast. join me later for more details. it's saturday the lith of march. our top story. three unions representing up to 115,000 health workers in england have suspended a series of strikes after a government offer for talks on pay. the next walkout was due to happen on monday. the welsh ambulance service has also agreed to suspend action for further talks. our health correspondent catherine burns reports. nhs staff started striking in december but things have scaled up recently. this is what we were expecting an england next week. more other nhs workers working out over two days. one union, gmb, said it was going to cut back on cover for a

category two calls, including four heart and strokes, but not any more. we have had a significant in this dispute. from the start of the dispute. from the start of the dispute what we have been asking for is for the government to meet with the health unions and seriously negotiate on p, for this dispute, but also for next year's pay, and that will be the offer we will now receive. gmb has agreed to call off next week's strike. another union, unite, is going ahead with their walk—out, but this will involve a few thousand staff instead of tens of thousands. department of health and social care says...

this is the second big breakthrough in england. royal college of nursing started intensive pay talks with government last month. and there are glimmers of hope elsewhere. and that you use wales say there has been significant progress and have suspended the strike action. all health strikes in scotland have been paused and there are no further dates are set in northern ireland. but if this is all feeling like the beginning of the end of strikes, maybe notjust yet. junior doctors maybe not just yet. junior doctors have maybe notjust yet. junior doctors have three days in a row plan soon. add to unions in pay talks see if they feel, strikes will be back with a vengeance. a teaching union has called off planned strike action after receiving a new pay offer from the scottish government. the educational institute of scotland will now hold a ballot on the deal which would see teachers get a 12.3 per cent increase

in pay by april, rising to 1k per cent by 202a. it means 20 days of rolling strikes that had been planned in scotland have been suspended while members vote. senior doctors in england are being told by their union to ask for at least three times their basic pay to provide emergency cover forjunior colleagues, when they go on strike later this month. the advice issued by the british medical association has been described as "unreasonable" by nhs bosses, as they try to plug the gaps in emergency care during the 72 hours of industrial action. leaked messages reveal that the former health secretary, matt hancock, spent hours discussing how he could save his career, after the sun published an image showing him kissing his aide while social distancing restrictions were in place. the daily telegraph has printed whatsapp conversations from june 2021, in which mr hancock discusses with his advisers whether he's broken his own covid rules. our political correspondent,

lone wells, has more. the photograph that ended matt hancock's career as health secretary. and his manners. mr hancock kissing his aide. now an insight into the chaotic scramble that followed its appearance on the front page of the sun newspaper. telegraph newspaper had published more of that hancock's text messages, leaked to them by a journalist he was given them to help write his book. in one message his adviser at the time as sent to think very hard if he could have broken any rules. matt hancock, who was health secretary at the time, asked for clarification about what exactly the covid guidance was at the time the covid guidance was at the time the photograph was taken. he says that he cannot think of rules that were broken other than the guidance to keep one metre or more away from others. referencing the press he

says... they discussed the work place guidance in place at the time and said... his adviser points out... in a separate exchange mr hancock seeks advice from former chancellor george osborne about a resignation video he plans to publish. george osborne says... he eventually resigned in the video posted on twitter. i eventually resigned in the video posted on twitter.— eventually resigned in the video posted on twitter. i understand the enormous sacrifices _ posted on twitter. i understand the enormous sacrifices that _ posted on twitter. i understand the enormous sacrifices that everybody| enormous sacrifices that everybody in this country has made. those of us who make these rules have got to stick by them and that is why i have got to resign. mr hancock's spokesperson said it is intrusive and inappropriate that these mysteries have been published, and that they reveal nothing new. but the messages show he and his

team were aware he could have breached the guidance, and tried to find ways to justify what happens. shining a light on how a minister at his closest aides game planned a crisis. meanwhile, mps investigating the conduct of the former prime minister borisjohnson, say he may have misled parliament multiple times over gatherings at downing street during the pandemic. we can get the latest on this now with our political correspondent charlotte rose. charlotte — what more do we know? this report is from a cross—party committee of mps, called the privileges committee. they are not looking at the issue of lockdown parties per se, all that was mitigated by that senior civil servant sue gray, and by metropolitan police last year. what they are looking at specifically is whether boris johnson they are looking at specifically is whether borisjohnson misled mps in statements that he gifted parliament. they see this report, which is the initial report, based on things like e—mails, photographs they have received, and 46 whatsapp messages that have been supplied to

them by borisjohnson's lawyers, as well as the interviews with 23 eyewitnesses. borisjohnson has said that this report totally vindicates him, and despite all this evidence, the committee has found absolutely no evidence that he misled parliament. but reading this report, thatis parliament. but reading this report, that is not what it appears to see. i think there is a line which it is most difficult for the prime minister, this one, the evidence strongly suggests that breaches of the guidance would have been obvious to mrjohnson at the time he was at these gatherings. of course we know borisjohnson these gatherings. of course we know boris johnson told these gatherings. of course we know borisjohnson told parliament these gatherings. of course we know boris johnson told parliament that no rules were broken, and that the guidance was followed at all times. the committee says, it should have been clear to him that this was not the case. this is, as i said, an initial report. borisjohnson is going to appear before this committee on 20th of march to answer some of their follow—up questions. of some of their follow—up questions. of the committee found that he has misled parliament it will then be for mps to decide what his sanction should be. it could be the case that he could be suspended for a of

these. bet a couple of days. the actor tom sizemore, best known for his roles in saving private ryan and black hawk down, has died aged 61. he'd been in a coma since suffering a ruptured brain aneurysm last month. in a statement his brother paul said: "i am deeply saddened "by the loss of my big brother tom. "he has influenced my life more than anyone i know". an investigation is under way after a fire broke out on friday afternoon on a ferry sailing between dover and calais, leaving 183 passengers and crew stranded on board. they were all unharmed. at one point those on board were told to muster the lifeboats. simonjones is in dover for us this morning — simon, where is the ship now? no one has been hurt in this incident, but nonetheless presumably scary for those on board. yes, and it was taken very

seriously. theirferry yes, and it was taken very seriously. their ferry set off yesterday afternoon from dover at around five o'clock, the journey takes one hour and a half, but to understand this morning that 183 passengers and crew members are still on board that ferry, waiting to be taken over to the port of calais. the fire broke out when that ferry was mid—channel, passenger shuttle to go to master points, it was feared that ferry would have to be evacuated at point, but crews managed to put out the fire which started in the engine room. lifeboats from dover, ramsgate, were sent to the scene, their help is not required in the n. irish ferry which operates this vessel says crews were trained for this, no one was harmed. but there has been an operation to

tow the ferry towards calais. we have heard from the french coast it is now finally arriving at the port, all those on board will at last be able to get off that ferry. it has been a pretty stressful experience for them, and a very long night waiting to be able to get to shore safely. irish ferries say they will carry out a full investigation into what happened, working with the authorities and coastguards on both sides of the channel, and they will now need to assess the damage. detectives in northern ireland have been granted until tomorrow evening to question two men arrested in connection with the shooting of an off—duty police officer in 0magh last week. police believe the dissident republican group, the new ira, was behind the attack. officers have questioned and subsequently released six other men. detective chief inspectorjohn caldwell remains in a critical condition in hospital. a ceremony has taken place injerusalem to consecrate the oil that will be used to anoint king charles during his coronation in may.

underneath this large area of high pressure. a very weak weather front trickling down into scotland. that is responsible for that thicker cloud and a view showing. puzzle agent to eastern scotland, and down the east coast of england. otherwise a lot of dry weather. northern ireland is dry, cloudy. temperatures have not changed over the last five days. seven or eight celsius. overnight tonight we keep a lot of cloud. it will thicken up to give a few more showers. that should keep temperatures up on the whole. we have the cloud does break here and there there will be a touch of frost. as we head into sunday morning temperatures will be around two or three celsius. a chilly start. it will take a while to warm up start. it will take a while to warm up because there will be a lot of cloud, that could produce more showers here and there on sunday. something brighter with some sunshine in central and southern scotland. brighterfor northern

scotland. brighter for northern ireland scotland. brighterfor northern ireland and later in the north—west of englund. maybe we are clutching at straws. those territories perhaps at straws. those territories perhaps a degree or sought lower. things are going to get colder. especially as the winds picks up next week. the threat of snow and ice. call air starts to arrive on the far north of scotland during sunday night. behind that weather front, which scotland during sunday night. behind that weatherfront, which is bringing a band of rain, but also sleet and snow in there. that band of wet weather will move down across northern ireland, into northern england and north wales during monday. to the sites that may be odd shower. to the north, the colder air, temperatures lower. those showers are turning more wintry. at the time gets to choose day that is where the weather front is. otherwise, some sunshine. showers coming in. sleetand otherwise, some sunshine. showers coming in. sleet and snow for northern scotland, down the east coast of england as well. those temperatures, four or five celsius. there will be some sunshine. factor in the strength of the wind and it

will feel much colder. feeling like minus four celsius in aberdeen. this is one part of a country that will see some snow and ice. we have some yellow weather warnings from the met office for monday and tuesday. for northern and eastern scotland, and the north—east of england, is a swimming expecting the worst of the cold weather to be early next week. the heaviest snow will be across northern scotland. and for all of us it will feel much cooler. you are never happier than when you have lots of whether to show us with lots of whizzy graphics. yellow blobs. as technical as that. what we have got a does not very interesting. forthe what we have got a does not very interesting. for the past week we have been chasing cloud, it is difficult to get details on that. we have a proper story coming into next week. you may not like it, but you are going to be stuck with it for a while. the chancellor, jeremy hunt,

is expected to extend the energy price guarantee at current levels for the next three months, the bbc understands. currently, the government's energy price guarantee means the average bills are capped at £2,500. the government were planning to let that go up to £3,000 from the start of april. but the bbc understands they will now keep the cap at £2,500 for another three months. some support still looks set to end. currently, all households are benefitting from a £400 grant paid over six months to reduce bills. that is expected to be stopped from april,

meaning many people will end up paying more. here to talk with us more about this is emma pinchbeck from energy uk, which represents companies from across the energy industry. will this extension happen or not? there has been speculation that it could happen. some suppliers are trying to prepare for the idea that it could happen but there has not been official confirmation. they're also preparing for the idea that it might not happen. we see now it has been released to political journalists and others. so maybe it is likely that you will see average bills capped at £2500 that we are looking for confirmation as soon as possible so that we can let customers know on time. the reason for this is that the

wholesale price of gas is going down, so what the government had planned to spend is not quite as much as they have had to spend? that is riuht. much as they have had to spend? that is right- budget _ much as they have had to spend? “i“isgit is right. budget is 90% underspent. £70 billion less than they had planned. to extend the energy price guarantee for three months, —— they are talking about £2 billion, they think that is worth doing. i don't think that is worth doing. i don't think many customers are aware of thatis think many customers are aware of that is going to happen. it is a common sense thing to do. it will help inflation. it will help 12 million households struggling to pay their bills. consumer groups, charities, everybody has been seeing it. we think the government are going to see it but we cannot write out to people until we know for sure. you are looking for certainty. you see any decisions around bills, you need to give lots of notice so that people can at least plan if they are facing any increases further down

the line. that is right. we are regulated to give people as much notice as possible, but with the pandemic and with the energy crisis there has been some flexibility. we got this particular scheme out the door within three weeks and it was originally put in. that four people budgeting and for the industry to make sure direct debits are paid correctly, systems are loaded up properly, make sure we write out to 28 million households on time, the earlier we know, the better. that is not to say we don't appreciate that the chancellor might want a brilliant fiscal moment at the spring statement, but there has to be a way to let the industry know for sure that this is coming. what figures do you have on the number of households that are not able to pay their bills currently? we think 12 million households are spending more than 10% of their disposable household income on energy. that is the old definition of fuel poverty in this country. that is roughly 14% of all

households. that is significant, thatis households. that is significant, that is why we are calling for £2500 support to stay in place. 2500, even better than 3000, is still a historic high for energy bills, we recognise also. call centre volumes into uk suppliers are higher, and of those, a 300% increase in those asking for financial help. as a sector we are seeing lots of households struggling, we are also seen debt at record high levels in sector two, £2.5 billion worth of debt... it sector two, £2.5 billion worth of debt... , ., , ~ ., debt... it is worth seeing, i know talkin: debt... it is worth seeing, i know talking about _ debt... it is worth seeing, i know talking about the _ debt... it is worth seeing, i know talking about the cap, _ debt... it is worth seeing, i know talking about the cap, all- debt... it is worth seeing, i know talking about the cap, all that i debt... it is worth seeing, i know talking about the cap, all that is| talking about the cap, all that is is notional in a sense, because if you use more energy, you pay more. at this rate. there is a cap on the units rate rather than a cap of the overall bill. we have seen talking to government about doing things like expanding energy efficiency programmes, making sure that we get

our gas in the long run, therefore investing in renewables and other things in the budgets, to make sure that their bills stay down in the long run. also, we appreciate that we need to get targeted help for vulnerable people. very important that people know they can phone their supplier of their mind about their supplier of their mind about the bill. also, this is not a maximum bill, it is still incentive to use less energy. you are talking about the long run as well. it is notjust about bills, it is about building in resilience. you say that we still have the least efficient housing stock and unit. that is an ongoing problem that feels that no political party has got a grip on. feels that no political party has got a grip on-— feels that no political party has uu-otarion. , , got a grip on. yes, there has been shoutin: got a grip on. yes, there has been shouting about _ got a grip on. yes, there has been shouting about that _ got a grip on. yes, there has been shouting about that for _ got a grip on. yes, there has been shouting about that for a - got a grip on. yes, there has been shouting about that for a decade i got a grip on. yes, there has been| shouting about that for a decade or more. we have the leaky as housing stock in europe. the difference between our bills and what people

pay in europe, the sheer amount of energy used to keep warm. the other thing is we use a lot of gas for heating, any roles where gas prices are spiking, importing expensive gas and burning it in our homes is not the cheapest way of keeping ourselves while in the future. as well as emergency support the government needs to crack on with pushing to help us decarbonise, all cease to make sure we're getting renewables on the system, to import less expensive gas, that is why we are calling on the chance to make sure that there are changes the windfall tax on generators. it is a complex world, the energy system. the good news for customers is that the cheaper and greener energy system as possible and we will get round the table to make sure the medium—term there is more targeted support going to households. there is a lot for government to do here, notjust until april. getting us to apriljust bridges the gap, then we can see wholesale prices falling.

chief executive of energy uk, thank you for your time. people living in a north yorkshire village say their lives are being blighted by speeding drivers — and they want the police to install fixed cameras to deter people from breaking the limit. residents in cowling near keighley have sent the bbc shocking videos of dangerous driving near their homes. there are no fixed speed cameras at all in north yorkshire — and the county's force is one ofjust four in england to only use mobile cameras. emma glasby reports. the speed limit is 30 through most of this north yorkshire village, but day and night drivers are breaking the law and putting lives at risk.

one driver even posted a video on social media, apparently exceeding 100 mph, as they approach the village. in north yorkshire there are no fixed speed cameras, only mobile units.— are no fixed speed cameras, only mobile units. ., , ., ., mobile units. people here want that to chance. mobile units. people here want that to change- we _ mobile units. people here want that to change. we want _ mobile units. people here want that to change. we want consistent - to change. we want consistent enforcement. we have huge respect for the police. they have been here, they have engaged with ours, they have deployed mobile speed cameras. they are very effective when they are here. but there are only a 10% of the entire year. the council has introduced a a0 limit on the approach to the village, and installed traffic islands, but the people living here have started a petition for effects than average speed cameras in north yorkshire. this village borders to other counties, west yorkshire in that direction, and lancashire in that direction. both areas are increasing the number of speed cameras, but here, in north yorkshire, the police

force is one of the only manse in the country not using fixed speed cabinets. instead, they are using mobile speed cameras, and constantly moving them around the county. the argument for mobile speed cameras is that people don't know where they are, that they might slow down and speed up again when they know that as a fixed camera. any place where it is happening so regularly needs fixed our average speed cameras they are to deal with the fact the problem goes on all—day, all—night, notjust all—day, all—night, not just occasionally. all—day, all—night, notjust occasionally. it is very helpful that the police provides mobile cameras, that it is not enough, and it doesn't work when they have gone home. the campaigners see this problem is repeated in neighbouring villages. that is why they argue north yorkshire's different approach to speed cameras now needs to change.

we are joined now by the national lead for fatal crash investigations from the met police. we were looking at one village there. they are adamant that if there. they are adamant that if there were fixed cameras in that village people would slow down. that is true? ,., ., ., 4, is true? good morning. i think in our is true? good morning. i think in your intro _ is true? good morning. i think in your intro you — is true? good morning. i think in your intro you talked _ is true? good morning. i think in your intro you talked about - is true? good morning. i think in - your intro you talked about speeding being contemptuous, people are complacent, they think it is acceptable for them to speed. too many drivers have that approach. we need to remember a5 people every single day on average in the uk die, the single biggest cause of that is speeding. it is a range of tactics that we need. mobile speed cameras,

static cameras, that is just a range of important tactics that we can use. primarily this is about people taking responsibility themselves, recognising the harm that comes to so many families up and down the country. and i mean those people, i see the devastation of course. by taking personal responsibility, it is a limit, not a target. we should dry and bring the limits. and then the purpose of anyjourney is to go from a to b safely. i appreciate what you are seeing. ultimately the responsibility for driving faster as the person who is a speeding, that is a given. but it remains the case, no matter what, i appreciate you have got a range of options available to you. but in a village a fixed camera that would work, wouldn't it? aren't they right? i think speed enforcement cameras to work, you are right, but as a range of tactics. having that mobile capability as well. so drivers don't become

complacent and particular roads with particular zones, complacent and particular roads with particularzones, it complacent and particular roads with particular zones, it is really important. it is important we have got the cabinets wear the harness must identify. that does come from community concerns. you are right, around villages. but it has also been intelligence led by some of our crash knowledge and crash history of where fatal crashes and serious crashes occur. but it is a range of tactics. primarily this is about culture. if you look at drink—driving, that is rightly seen as socially unacceptable. people perhaps take the keys of somebody else prepared to drink and drive. but we see people in a car with people prepared to speed. this is about individuals recognising the harnesses because, real change in driving culture, to make sure safety is our priority. cani can ijust can i just check can ijust check one can i just check one factual thing? i've heard for a camera to be that

there has to be serious incidences previously, resulting in injury or death. is that right? it previously, resulting in in'ury or death. is that right?h previously, resulting in in'ury or death. is that right? it should be the case, death. is that right? it should be the case. i _ death. is that right? it should be the case, i can't _ death. is that right? it should be the case, i can't comment - death. is that right? it should be the case, i can't comment on - death. is that right? it should be i the case, i can't comment on every camera up and down the country, but we should see the crash history and looking at the harm the crashes because, looking intelligence in the community, certainly we try and prioritise that, but i can't speak to every authority. i prioritise that, but i can't speak to every authority.— prioritise that, but i can't speak to every authority. i am interested in the position _ to every authority. i am interested in the position you _ to every authority. i am interested in the position you have _ to every authority. i am interested in the position you have on - to every authority. i am interested in the position you have on what i to every authority. i am interested i in the position you have on what you describe as covert cameras, cameras and unmarked vans, which you say are very effective. tell us more about these kinds of cameras. i very effective. tell us more about these kinds of cameras.— very effective. tell us more about these kinds of cameras. i think will become more _ these kinds of cameras. i think will become more effective _ these kinds of cameras. i think will become more effective once - these kinds of cameras. i think will| become more effective once people understand that we do, northamptonshire for example have a range of speed vans, and i think it's important that the public, who should not speed, that is the

primary line we should consider, is caused significant harm up and down the country, they should not speed, but they do speed and they are subject to enforcement whatever that means, it is down to them to change the way they drive, so using covert cameras may create a deterrence, people might look for the static camera, and speed up after they have passed it, so we need to have people thinking day night about how they drive. ii thinking day night about how they drive. , ., , thinking day night about how they drive. , .,, ., thinking day night about how they drive. , ., ., ,, ., . drive. if people wanted reassurance, ou talk drive. if people wanted reassurance, you talk about _ drive. if people wanted reassurance, you talk about the _ drive. if people wanted reassurance, you talk about the range _ drive. if people wanted reassurance, you talk about the range of- you talk about the range of measures, the disguised fans, how many of them are there? people might want to be reassured that there are plenty of them rather down, you know, one perforce. how many are there? i know, one perforce. how many are there? ., �* ~ ., . , there? i don't know that number. i think it's starting _ there? i don't know that number. i think it's starting to _ there? i don't know that number. i think it's starting to be _

technology for the public to enforce speeding that with they see, there is intensive work to do on that, but using your phone or close passing a cyclist, for example, causing risk by doing a really dangerous overtake, we have significant numbers of public referring road crimes now, and there is a growing demand, so that is nationally, there is no longer a postcode lottery depending on where you live, it is increasing and the police are receptive to that, we recognise we cannot solve it on our own, like any other crime we ask the public to help us in the public to give us information. it's the same for road danger. information. it's the same for road dancer. . , , , information. it's the same for road dancer. , , danger. finally, briefly, can you address the _ danger. finally, briefly, can you address the idea, _ danger. finally, briefly, can you address the idea, you _ danger. finally, briefly, can you address the idea, you hear- danger. finally, briefly, can you address the idea, you hear it i danger. finally, briefly, can you - address the idea, you hear it often, people talking about it, the speed cameras are cash generators for the police? cameras are cash generators for the olice? ~ , ., police? absolutely not the case,

of stars has yet to click, and they're down in 10th place. they were beaten by bottom club southampton in their last home game. he insists that he has the support of the club's owners, but the question seems to be every week, for how long. chelsea have managed just one win so far in 2023, after 6 months with potter in charge. today they take on relegation threatened leeds at stamford bridge this afternoon. so a massive chance to turn the tide...leeds have won away from home in the league, just once this season..but whatever happens, potter appreciates the club's backing but knows it's down to him and the results. there is support, have spoken to them, i won't hide behind that, i'm responsible, if the results are not good you accept the criticism, you accept all the noise that comes with it. the former england cricket captain michael vaughan, says the disciplinary hearing into allegations of racism at yorkshire is a "terrible look" for cricket. vaughan has repeatedly denied allegations he made racist comments towards his former yorkshire team—mate, azeem rafiq and did so again when giving

evidence for the first time in the hearing yesterday. however, the former yorkshire captain, who retired in 2009, did apologise for some historical tweets. what a week it's been on the slopes for great britain — and there's more. in the last hour, great britain's zoe atkin, has won halfpipe silver at the alpine world championships in georgia. atkin was in first place after run two and solidified her position with a great third run, but unfortunately for her, american hanna faulhaber scored the highest of the day to pip her to top spot. atkin, who isjust 20, was born in the united states and is the younger sister, of fellow skiier, izzy atkin, won bronze at the event last year. now to the big shock in rugby league, as reigning super league champions st helens were stunned by a last minute drop goal in their match against leeds rhinos — the team they beat in last year's grand final. blake austin was the man who put the ball between the sticks, for the rhinos with just seconds left on the clock. that was leeds' first win

of the season and a first defeat for saints who, just a couple of weeks ago, were crowned the best club side in the world. a bad night for the the other saints in rugby union's premiership — northampton saints were on the end of real mauling by bristol bears, who won 62 points to 8 at ashton gate. it's the biggest win of the season, and bristol's biggest ever in the top division, scoring nine tries, harry randall with two of them. northampton did go ahead briefly, early on, but it was one—way traffic from then, the win moving them to 8th, with northampton losing ground on the top two. formula one is back this weekend. red bull's max verstappen is favourite for a third consecutive world title, but he didn't have it all his own way in practice on friday. he was just behind fernando alonso — who's joined the aston martin team this season. it was a disappointing day for lewis hamilton and his mercedes team mate george russell. hamilton was only eighth quickest, with the seven times world champion, underlining what we mentioned yesterday, that they expect a difficult start to the season.

on to the drama of the european indoor athletics championships, and contrasting fortunes for 2 british athletes in the 1500 metres final. in the first lap of the men's1500 metres final, george mills, son of ex england football star, danny took, was in the pack when he fell, and his race was over — but his team—mate neil gourley, was going for gold, on the shoulder of norway's olympic champion, jakob ingebrigtsen, but he held on, and gourley had to settle for second, but it's still the best performance of his career at a major event. it was important to win a medal, at least here today. i haven't done that yet, i haven't won a major medal. so, it was important to get that started, and, yeah, as you said, this wasjust building blocks for the summer. we are not there yet, but we are getting there. we are getting closer and closer, little by little. in the women's 3000 metres, melissa courtney—bryant was clinging on to the pace,

butjust ran out of steam in the end, claiming another bronze for britain's tally. her team—mate hannah nuttall wasn't too far behind, finishing in fifth with a personal best. a slow reaction time at the start cost daryll neita in the women's 60 metres final — we are talking fractions of a second — but it meant she wasn't going to catch the swiss world champion mujinga kambundji who equalled the championship record in 7 seconds, neita taking bronze. some great action coming up from those championships later today. lauira muir amongst several brits going in the 1500 metre final tonight and reigning champion keely hodgkinson going in the 800 metre semis. will any of them match the drama of the 60 metres? a few years ago, uk athletics wanted us to see how technical the shortest sprint is. how important the start is. so they offered me on behalf of breakfast, a place in a 60 metres heat at the indoor grand prix in birmingham.

sources, but it's running low. this is the river black bourn, which suggests it's probably about half the usual flow. for sort of the end of february, beginning of march. that low flow means the farm is limited in how much water it can take out. we are restricted to our lowest abstraction rate at this present point in time. anglian water supplies most of our region. their reservoirs, like grafham in cambridgeshire are coping better. the company says its big concern is about ground water sources, some of which are at historically low levels, particularly those in norfolk. so, what chance of a hosepipe ban? the next four to six weeks of what the weather does and how much it rains are really critical. we have very defined plans for drought which we set out with our regulators, the environment agency, and when we reach the triggers where we would need to implement the hosepipe ban we wouldn't hesitate in doing so.

how low is the flow, comparatively? so, today, this is about seven times lower than what we saw this time last year. the river waveney, just outside diss. we are seeing exposed banks, visible tree roots and definitely water levels one foot to two foot below where we would expect them to be. the trust that looks after the waveney concerned about a waterway that supplies farms and drinking water and cautioning that change is needed. we need to, especially in this part of the country, rethink how we manage our water, especially with more people in this region. we are the driest region of the country, and we are most at risk of water scarcity, so we do really need to think carefully how we use our water, plan carefully for the future, because this is the future, this is climate change and it will only continue. our rain deficit is now thought to be three months of rainfall. many are hoping for a wet spring. forecasters say there is a higher chance of the drier

weather continuing. here's darren with a look at this morning's weather. yes indeed... but you have rain. for us. some parts the country are more likely to have snow then rain. the only part of the country that was white, really, during last month was in the far north—west of scotland. without grounds where it has been exceptionally dry. let's focus on east anglia. i've been looking at the rainfall figures for this part of the country, and if we look at february, there is only six millimetres of rain, which is 1a% of what we would normally expect during the month, but if we look back at the month, but if we look back at the last six months, actually, there

has been near average or slightly above average rainfall, and those figures partly skewed by how wet it was in november, but how far back you go? the full six months ago we had the drought and we had the heat that really tried things off during last summer, so it could be a knock—on from what we saw them, but over the last six months we have had near or slightly above average. no measurable rain, really, ithink, today. a few light showers in northern and eastern scotland pushing down the eastern coast of england as well, a lot of cloud to the rest of day, if you do get some sunshine you are one of the lucky few. many places will be dry, still on the chilly side as a has—been of the past week, temperatures have not really change very much at all, overnight we will hang on to cloud, more showers overnight, on the whole with the cloud, temperatures should be just above freezing as we head

into tomorrow morning. a true start of this start of the weekend with a lot of cloud. we may see the clouds thickening to give a few more showers here and there on sunday, may be something a bit brighter with sunshine, centraland sunshine, central and southern scotland, perhaps briefly in ireland and england. ifanything, temperatures may be slightly lower tomorrow, typically sixes and sevens, but colder weather to come for next week. risk of snow and ice, it will feel cultural bias, particularly with some stronger winds. coming all the way from the arctic, and we start to see the colder air arriving tomorrow night in the north of scotland. that will bring a mixture of rain, sleet and snow as it drags down across scotland, and then, through monday into northern england, and rthern to the south, to the north it's going to be much colder. by the time we to tuesday this is what's going to be left the rain, snow showers coming

in around the coastal areas in particular, dry on tuesday with some sunshine, temperatures a or 5 degrees, because we have a stronger, colder wind it will feel colder. that will be the case of any of us next week, snow limited to northern and eastern scotland and also the north—east of england. newly—released cctv footage from a train in england has revealed a shocking near miss at a pedestrian level crossing earlier this year. network rail, which released the video, is asking people to be much more vigilant near railways, warning that the incident you're about to see could so easily have ended in tragedy. aru na iyengar reports. imagine you are the train driver. coming up as a full level crossing. a man crosses the track right in front of you. the train can be travelling at 125 miles an hour on

this stretch. missed it? let see it again. slowed down this time. it is clear the man could so easily have been hit. it happened injanuary just before 11am. the entrance to the crossing shows a red light when it is not safe to cross, but the man ignored it. network rail says when people are in familiar settings they sometimes don't concentrate or take warning seriously. here in west sussex, the 21st of february. the light comes on the barrier comes down, and a motorcyclistjumped the lights, a criminal offence. here is the same offence from a different angle. the driver had to make an emergency stop and compose himself before continuing the journey. network rail says no matter how well you think you know the crossing, it is worth thinking about these points. concentrate, it is easy to

get distracted, especially by phones, music and conversation. always follow the signs and instructions displayed at level crossings and pay attention to lights, barriers and alarms. check both ways before crossing. if there is a train coming, don't cross. cross quickly, keeping children and dogs on a lead. by raising awareness, train companies have reduced delays, protecting drivers and stop preventable accidents. here to talk about this more with us is luchordan, network rail�*s north west head of safety. everyone who has seen both of those images featured in that film, one in the and one i think toddington, the real when you see those pictures. you do, obviously, in my position as head of safety, you just think that's if you split seconds between what could have been lost lives,

catherine burns reports. nhs staff started striking in december but things have scaled up recently. this is what we were expecting an england next week. more ambulance and other nhs workers walking out over two days. one union, gmb, said it was going to cut back on cover for a category two calls, including four heart and strokes, but not any more. we have had a significant development in this dispute. from the start of the dispute what we have been asking for is for the government to meet with the health unions and seriously negotiate on pay, for this dispute, but also for next year's pay, and that is the offer we've now received. gmb has agreed to call off next week's strike.

another union, unite, is going ahead with a walk—out, but this will involve a few thousand staff instead of tens of thousands. department of health and social care says... this is the second big breakthrough in england. royal college of nursing started intensive pay talks with government last month. and there are glimmers of hope elsewhere. ambulance unions in wales say there has been significant progress and have suspended the strike action. all health strikes in scotland have been paused and there are no further dates are set in northern ireland. but if this is all feeling like the beginning of the end

of strikes, maybe notjust yet. junior doctors have three days in a row planned soon. and the unions in pay talks say if they fail, strikes will be back with a vengeance. a teaching union has called off planned strike action after receiving a new pay offer from the scottish government. the educational institute of scotland will now hold a ballot on the deal which would see teachers get a 12.3% increase in pay by april, rising to 1a% by 202a. it means 20 days of rolling strikes that had been planned in scotland have been suspended while members vote. senior doctors in england are being told by their union to ask for at least three times their basic pay to provide emergency cover forjunior colleagues, when they go on strike later this month. the advice issued by the british medical association has been described as "unreasonable" by nhs bosses, as they try to plug the gaps in emergency care during the 72 hours of industrial action.

leaked messages reveal that the former health secretary, matt hancock, spent hours discussing how he could save his career, after the sun published an image showing him kissing his aide while social distancing restrictions were in place. the daily telegraph has printed whatsapp conversations from june 2021, in which mr hancock discusses with his advisers whether he's broken his own covid rules. our political correspondent, lone wells, has more. the photograph that ended matt hancock's career as health secretary. and his marriage. mr hancock kissing his aide. now an insight into the chaotic scramble that followed its appearance on the front page of the sun newspaper. the telegraph newspaper have published more of matt hancock's text messages,

leaked to them by a journalist who was given them to help write his book. in one message his adviser at the time as sent to think very hard if he could have broken any rules. matt hancock, who was health secretary at the time, asked for clarification about what exactly the covid guidance was at the time the photograph was taken. he says that he cannot think of rules that were broken other than the guidance to keep one metre or more away from others. referencing the press he says... they discussed the work place guidance in place at the time that said... his adviser points out... in a separate exchange mr hancock seeks advice from former chancellor george osborne about a resignation video he plans to publish. george osborne says... he eventually resigned in the video posted on twitter. i understand the enormous sacrifices that everybody in this country has made.

those of us who make these rules have got to stick by them and that is why i have got to resign. mr hancock's spokesperson said it is intrusive and inappropriate that these messages have been published, and that they reveal nothing new. but the messages show he and his team were aware he could have breached the guidance, and tried to find ways to justify what happened. shining a light on how a minister at his closest aides gameplanned a crisis. meanwhile, mps investigating the conduct of the former prime minister borisjohnson, say he may have misled parliament multiple times over gatherings at downing street during the pandemic. we can get the latest on this now with our political correspondent charlotte rose. charlotte — what more do we know? the privilege committee has released

some new information that strongly suggests covid rule breaches would have been obvious to mrjohnson. this report comes from a cross—party committee of mps cold the privileges committee, theirjob is to make sure mps follow the rules. they say they have been gathering whatsapp messages, e—mails, other evidence supplied by borisjohnson's lawyers, and interviews with 23 eyewitnesses. borisjohnson said in response to their report that it has vindicated him and despite all the information at the committee has considered it has found no evidence that he misled mps in parliament. but if you read the report, that is not what these mps seem to be seeing. the most difficult line for the former prime minister as this one. the evidence strongly suggests that breaches of the guidance would have been obvious to mrjohnson at the time he was at the gatherings. borisjohnson of course told mps that no rules were

broken, and separately, that guidance was followed at all times. committee says it should have been clear to him that this was not the case. this is an initial report. borisjohnson will be cold to appear before this committee on 20th of march. the sea they have questions and follow—up to ask him. ed may find he has misled parliament it will then be for the whole of the house of commons, all mps, to decide what the sanction should be. they could vote for a number of things including him giving a formal apology, or even that he gets suspended from parliament. an investigation is under way after a fire broke out on friday afternoon on a ferry sailing between dover and calais, leaving 183 passengers and crew stranded on board. they are unharmed. at one point those on board were told to muster the lifeboats. simonjones is in dover for us this morning — simon, where is the ship now?

finally some good news this morning for 183 passengers and crew members on board that ferry. it has in the past hour docked over in the port of calais. that is after during the night it had to be towed over to northern france from the middle of the channel by a tag. this all started when the fire broke out at around half past five yesterday evening. there was a fire in the control room. at one point all the passengers were told they had to get to muster points because it was possible the ship would have to be evacuated. three lifeboats were sent from the uk and here in dover, and ramsgate. fortunately the crew on board were able to put out the fire at themselves. no emergency intervention was needed by that lifeboat. but it's meant that this ship lost power and that is why it had to be carried over to the port

of calais with the help of a tug. irish ferries, which operates this ship, says that now it is finally at calais it will be able to assess just how bad the damage actually is, and it is going to begin an investigation with the authorities on both sides of the channel, because when the fire broke out the ferry was actually in uk waters, thenit ferry was actually in uk waters, then it drifted into french waters, before that ferry was able to drop anchor. that is going to bring some disruption on cross—channel routes because it is likely after this fire this ship is going to be out of service for some time to come. the actor tom sizemore, best known for his roles in saving private ryan and black hawk down, has died aged 61. he'd been in a coma since suffering a ruptured brain aneurysm last month. in a statement his brother paul said: "i am deeply saddened "by the loss of my big brother tom. "he has influenced my life more

than anyone i know." a ceremony has taken place injerusalem to consecrate the oil that will be used to anoint king charles during his coronation in may. the service was carried out in one of the city's holiest christian sites, as our royal correspondent, nicholas witchell explains. (tx next) it is the most sacred moment of the coronation service. at the coronation of the late queen elizabeth she was shielded from view by a canopy as she was annointed with holy oil. yesterday at the church of the holy sepulchre injerusalem, the oil to be used at the coronation of king charles was consecrated. it has been made from olives harvested from the mount of olives, and perfumed with traditional oils and orange blossom. it was brought to the church, built on the spot where it is believed christ was crucified, to be blessed by the patriarch and the anglican archbishop ofjerusalem.

the consecration of the oil for the enthronement and the coronation brings about something of the deep and profound meaning both to king charles, to the church injerusalem, to the holy land, and i think to the whole world. the oil will be brought to westminster abbey in london, where at the coronation service, and in line with ancient tradition, it will be used to anoint the king and queen consort. here's darren with a look at this morning's weather. it's well feel chilly through this weekend but that is colder weather on the way for it will feel chilly through this weekend but there is colder weather on the way forward next week. this was the scene in keswick in cumbria this morning. a lot of cloud, that'll be the story for much of the country for the rest of the

day. one or two light showers, northern and eastern scotland, pushing into eastern parts of england. otherwise, likely to be dry. but struggling to find much sunshine. underneath the clouds, we have temperatures around seven and eight celsius. those temperatures have not changed much over the past few days but they will change next week. overnight tonight we will hang on to a lot of cloud. a few more light showers here and there, turning wintry over tops of mountains in scotland. if the cloud does break there will be frost, but on the whole with that blanket of cloud temperatures will be two or three celsius as we head into sunday morning. sunday will be quite a cloudy day once again. we may see a few moresche showers breaking out here and there. maybe some sunshine across central and southern scotland, and for a while in northern ireland and later in the north west of england, but generally it will be cloudy. temperatures if anything a degree or so lower on sunday afternoon. but it will be

cold into next week. winds will be picking up, making it feel even colder. it brings with it the threat of some snow and ice. all because we are getting a strengthening wind from the north, bringing down cold arctic air, pushing it southwards across the entire country. we start to see that cold air arriving on sunday night into monday morning. this weather fronts will bring a mixture of rain, sleet and snow, moving to scotland, heading away from the northern ireland through monday into england and north wales. in the south temperatures may be nine celsius. into tuesday, this is where the bands of clouds and rain is, across southern england, following on from that, some sunshine. many places may well be dry. look at this notion i was coming into northern scotland and down those eastern coasts. temperatures, four, five celsius in the sunshine. you may not think that is too bad when you factor in the strength of the wind, for example in

aberdeen, it will feel more like minus four celsius, wrap up well if you are out and about. snow and ice risk, on monday and tuesday across northern and eastern parts of scotland and north—east of england. highest snowfall likely to be in north—east scotland. snow is quite limited. but for all of the country into the next week you are going to notice it does feel much colder. three health unions representing up to a5,000 health workers in england have suspended a series of strikes after a government offer of talks on pay. the next walkout, which would have included ambulance workers from both gmb and unison, was due to happen on monday. it comes as the welsh ambulance service has also agreed to suspend action for further talks.

we're joined now by sara gorton who's the head of health at unison. we are proceeding with extreme caution. around 32,000 members of unison resets to take strike action next week, from amble and lets organisations, also from a range of hospital trusts and in the national blood service. they are tentatively willing to pause those strikes in order to enter talks. the big difference that we have seen this week, the sudden change from government, is a willingness to talk not only about pay for next year, but about topping up pay for this current pay year, yes, in the form of a one—off lump sum. there has been a concession from government, a significant movement from them, to say they are willing to do that and also commits there is additional

investment in pay in both of those years. we are very cautious about this. we could have been in this position back in december before we started the first strike. sadly it has taken a number of days of strike action in order to bring this situation around. but now we are here, we will do our best to make sure that we emerge from the talks were something meaningful for members. let us help our audience understand what sort of numbers we are talking about here. i know pay for last year was going to be critical. the previous pay offer was a pay rise of up previous pay offer was a pay rise of up to 9.3% for the lowest earners. most paramedics would get a rise of at least £1a00. how much more than that are you looking for? you don't have to be specific. just to give us a general idea. just have to be specific. just to give us a general idea.— a general idea. just to clarify, we do not normally _

a general idea. just to clarify, we do not normally have _ a general idea. just to clarify, we | do not normally have negotiations over pay in the nhs, so pay is imposed after review body process, that process last year led to everyday receiving £1a00 with some grades getting slightly more. as you say, 1a00 was that some that most people got. what we have been looking for is a significant improvement to that. in terms of what we would be looking for, i point you to what has proved acceptable to unison and other unions in scotland, where agreements were reached to top up those pay scales. i think the minimum pay point in scotland was increased by £2205. that is the sort of sum that we know has been accepted in other contexts. but members will be really wary. this is a government that has

refused to enter talks, unlike governments elsewhere in the uk. we have just been ignored for months and months. it is going to take a serious set of negotiations in order to bring... serious set of negotiations in order to brina... , ., , serious set of negotiations in order tobrinu... , ., , to bring... sorry to interrupt, you will also acknowledge _ to bring... sorry to interrupt, you will also acknowledge you - to bring... sorry to interrupt, you will also acknowledge you are i to bring... sorry to interrupt, you| will also acknowledge you are still talking about pay rise as well in excess of 10%. we know there is a lot of public support for strikers, particularly within the nhs, but equally there will be a lot of people working in the private sector who can only dream of those kinds of pay rises, and there is this question of how sustainable pay for that will be in the future. how much of that you take on board? it is interesting _ of that you take on board? it is interesting to _ of that you take on board? it is interesting to look _ of that you take on board? it 3 interesting to look at what the private sector has done. private sector is running a lot higher than the public sector in terms of rates of pay. almost every month you see different outlets in retail, hospitality, other sectors, responding to the cost of living crisis that we are in by awarding in

year pay increases, one of the big public chains was the latest to announce a third pay rise for this year very recently. the underlying issueis year very recently. the underlying issue is what pay rates will work to stop people leaving the nhs for a better paid and less stressful work elsewhere? that is what we have got to dry and achieve through these negotiations. looking at the top up for this year, but also about what we can set, what we can achieve as a pay rate for next year that is going to help with that retention process. understood. you have said as well if the government is not serious you'll be forced back into action. how much time you give it? hate be forced back into action. how much time you give it?— be forced back into action. how much time you give it? how do you measure that? we have — time you give it? how do you measure that? we have got _ time you give it? how do you measure that? we have got a _ time you give it? how do you measure that? we have got a date _ time you give it? how do you measure that? we have got a date that - time you give it? how do you measure that? we have got a date that we i that? we have got a date that we were holding for the 20th of march, were holding for the 20th of march, we hope that the talks produce a very good outcome and as swiftly as possible. we will be looking to make

sure that we have confidence in that process before we left the 20th of march. if we get in the room next week and we find that what the government means by additional investment in pay is not going to be a meaningful sum, then sadly that will be back on and we will be on strike on the 15th, sorry, on the 20th. but we have got a budget coming up on the 15th, there is an opportunity to pitch a committing to investment notjust opportunity to pitch a committing to investment not just at the nhs opportunity to pitch a committing to investment notjust at the nhs but the rest of the public sector, so let's see what that brings. we are going into this with our eyes open, but negotiations mean taking a calculated leap of faith. we have had assurances that there is additional funding available and investment in pay. let us engage in it in good faith but preserving our strike mandate so that if the talks fall apart we know that we will have to proceed on an industrialfooting.

thank you for your time. head of health at unison. with rising energy bills, many of us are looking at how we can cut costs when we're cooking our meals. one option is swapping the oven for a slow cooker, and now a charity in the east midlands is teaching people how to use them for the best results. our midlands correspondent, navtej johal, went along. dinner time in derby, but these are no ordinary meals, they have been made in a slow cooker. these women from the local unity are learning how the appliance could help them save time and money. this workshop has been set up by a local charity which runs a food bank. we really want to help _ which runs a food bank. we really want to help people _ which runs a food bank. we really want to help people have - which runs a food bank. we really want to help people have a - which runs a food bank. we really want to help people have a place | which runs a food bank. we really i want to help people have a place to come, have people to speak to, but also we want to help people with this awful cost of living crisis, and one way that we know we can do

thatis and one way that we know we can do that is by talking about slow cookers. because they are on a slow heat consistently throughout the day the use far less energy than the admin. it builds up the heat and it stays consistent throughout the day, which means it uses a lot less energy than if you put on the other for 20 minutes, add to hundreds degrees, to then turn off 20 minutes later. i hear that there might be a surprise at the end of today's workshop. the ladies think they are coming for an educational tour, what they don't know is they have got all three meals, they have got all the ingredients to make them, as a surprise, and they will all be taking home a brand you slow cooker, forfree. among the women attending is lucy, she has a chronic illness, and struggles to make food at home for her ten—year—old son, something has become even more difficult recently because rising costs. my because rising costs. my bills and electric has gone up

silly amounts. literally nothing left any more in order to cook for the family. for my son to sit there and enjoy a meal i have cooked, and my sister has made stuff for us, and he goes, this is so yummy. it would be nice to see mummy has cooked something for a change. beth was in care and has just got a place of her own for the first time, she has twojobs, she is here because time and money is tight. i spend a lot of money grabbing food on the way home because i'm too tired to cook. it is expensive. how useful have you found this session?— found this session? really useful. it has made _ found this session? really useful. it has made me _ found this session? really useful. it has made me want _ found this session? really useful. it has made me want to _ found this session? really useful. it has made me want to make i found this session? really useful. it has made me want to make it. | found this session? really useful. | it has made me want to make it. it did not take a lot of effort all the time. the session is almost over. before we let you go, we have a little bit of a surprise for you. i am going to

they sing. it has been three years, they have still got it. that sounded great. can't wait. that is coming up from ten o'clock this morning. stay with us. headlines coming up next.

hello, this is breakfast with charlie stayt and rachel burden. a teenage boy from london has spent a year trying to recreate photographs originally taken by his grandmother almost 70 years ago. from framing to composition, philip loveday has been following in her footsteps around the capital — trying to replicate the exact same pictures she captured — all in the hope it will help her with her alzheimer's, as he explains. hi, i'm philip and i spent about a year recreating photos that my grandma took when she was my age. she has alzheimer's, and she lives in devon.

doing this gave me a chance to sort of connect with her in a way that i haven't been able to before. i think, when you have alzheimer's, all the memories tend to stick a lot more, so the things that you sort of experience as a child, and for example taking those photos is really good, i think, because it sort of brings attention back to this part of her life which she kind of remembers. hello, can you see us? i can see you, yes. hello! what's really interesting about this project is that it connects the past with the present. so, it enables my mum to look at pictures that she took when she was 16 and to connect that with the london that exists now. iwant, really, every detail to be exact. so, if you see here, the sort of the amount of each window, you can see, really, everything i wanted to be exactly the same picture, and it's really hard to sort of angle everything such that it's exactly the same. it looks very, very similar.

hasn't changed very much. the things that have changed things like the time has changed. - among all the places you went to, what stood out, and why? i think big ben stood out a lot, because when the original photo was taken, there was scaffolding on it, and now, even after all these years, there still scaffolding on big ben. bye. bye! give us a wave! i think people assume that someone with alzheimer's disease is going to lose access to all of their memories. but what's interesting is that quite often you can unlock and access memories with the right prompts, and i think what's been really interesting and important about this project is it's helped my mum to reconnect with that really, really critical time in her life, but also to be able to place that in the present and to be able to see it alongside the present. she seemed to really like it, and i thought it was really heartwarming, to be honest! it makes me really happy to see

that she enjoyed it so much. could be anything, couldn't it? could be anything, couldn't it? could be a sporting event, for example. the way of memories going. absolutely, yeah. incredible way of bringing back memories. wonderful story. a manager, that many won't have heard of, will still, maybe this shows that spending a lot of time can help you become a goods coach. if you're setting a quiz this weekend and want to test your mates, ask them this — which team in europe's top five leagues, currently boasts the longest unbeaten run? the answer... stade de reims, who play in france's top division, league unn.... they haven't lost in 16 games in a run that stretches back to early october and are led, the youngest coach in europe's top five divisions.

his name is will still — a belgian born, english manager, who says playing football management games on his computer as a teenager, persuaded him, to get into coaching. dan ogunshakin went to meet him. ultimately, it's the bestjob in the world, i wouldn't change it for nothing. in france's famous champagne capital, it's notjust the wine that's sparkling. its football team is, too. known as the city of kings, reims was once home to some of the crown jewels of french football, but right now it's an englishman who is the toast of the town. will still, 30 years old, ligue1 manager. when you hear those words, what goes through your mind? it sounds stupid, really, doesn't it?! but ijust sort of learn to deal with it and get on with it and just try and focus on, yeah, the things i enjoy doing day in, day out, which is preparing training, giving training, being with the players, being with the staff and repairing, you know, their next game. i'm only 30, but i've been in professional football for nine years now, so i tend to know, you know, how it goes and how it doesn't go.

thejourney to ligue1 has been farfrom regular. born in belgium to english parents with school conducted in french, football remains the one constant. that, too, brought disappointment, as still�*s early career was dogged by rejection, but his commitment never wavered. being on the pitch is, wow, i would pay to be able to go every day and be out on the pitch, so, if i have to, you know, pick up cones or wash boots or clean the kit, you know, i will do that. i just want to get my foot in the door, i want to prove to myself and two other people that i'm capable of doing this. when still first stepped into reims dugout, the club faced relegation, but an unbeaten run of 16 league matches has seen them claim ligue 1. this success has literally come at a cost. still is yet to complete his uefa pro licence, and, as a result, reims must pay a 25,000 euros fine every single game until he finishes. they said, you know, we are ready to invest in your career, we can see you've got potential.

we want to help you do that. so, that was a major trust and confidence boost for me. all credit has to go to the players. i know that's a bit of a boring answer for you, but i'm not the one that's smashing round the pitch and running around like a headless chicken sometimes, you know, i do simple things and just try and stay myself and be myself and make sure everyone enjoys it. reims' unbeaten run now has them dreaming of european football. as the architect of their upturn, and the youngest manager in uefa's top five leagues, still is free to plot his own future. someone said, do you want to work in the premier league? it's like, well, if it's the championship, i'll do the championship and, yeah, i willjust take whatever comes. but obviously england is home to me, and one day, it's the dream of any kid to be working in england, so, yeah, i won't shy away from that. if his early success is any indication, it's not hard to imagine that a long career in football

management awaits will still, even in the premier league, but in the here and now, his impressive start with stade de reims suggests it's possible choose still and the results be sparkling. from one manager under no pressure to one under lots. how graham potter must at times wish he was playing a computer game at the moment, so he could press reboot, with his chelsea team. they have managed just one win so far in 2023, after 6 months with potter in charge, despite being the biggest spenders by far in the january transfer window. today they take on relegation threatened leeds at stamford bridge this afternoon. leeds haven't won away from home in the league, since october, so could this be the day? for now potter has the club's backing but for how long? there is support, have spoken to them, i won't hide behind that, i'm responsible, if the results are not good you accept the criticism, you accept

all the noise that comes with it. after a golden week on the slopes for great britain there's now a silver lining. earlier this morning, great britain's zoe atkin, has won halfpipe silver at the, fis world championships in georgia. atkin was in first place, after run two and solidified her position with a great third run, but unfortunately for her, american hanna faulhaber scored the highest of the day — to pip her to top spot. atkin, who isjust 20, won bronze at the event last year. she was born in the united states and is the younger sister, of fellow skier izzy atkin. it's a huge day ahead for british athletes at the european indoor athletics championships, in istanbul, with britain's laura muir, among the stars in the 1500 metres final this evening, and she'll have seen what can happen in the men's final. all that work and training and preparation, ending up on the floor, in the first lap, and a fall, for george mills, son of ex england football star danny, and so his race was over...in contrast it was a best career performance at a major event for neil gourley,

who came in behind, norway's olympic champion, jakob ingebrigtsen, for the silver medal... the medals kept coming, and despite a slow reaction time at the start from daryll neita. in the women's 60 metres final she did take bronze, in a race dominated by the swiss world champion mujinga kambundji who equalled the championship record with a time of 7 seconds.. it was amazing to bring a measure home, i really enjoyed it, not critically happy with this result. still amazing to get a medal and bring it home. we have been running the 60 metres is a hell of a lot better than i did my 100 metres outdoors last year, so i this indoor season, has been an amazing place to head to head to me outdoor season. today i would have liked more from myself, but i'm happy, it's a bronze medal and i'm grateful. in the women's 3000 metres melissa courtney—bryant did well to keep with the pace,

before just running out of steam in the end, but it was enough to claim another bronze for britain's tally. her team—mate hannah nuttall wasn't too far behind, finishing in fifth with a personal best. it's qualifying later today for the first formula one race of the season and after the opening practice sessions, maybe red bull's max verstappen won't have things all his own way. he was just behind fernando alonso — who's joined the aston martin team this season. it was a disappointing day for the mercedes drivers lewis hamilton and george russell. hamilton was only eighth quickest, but he says we shouldn't be surprised as the team were expecting a challenging start to the season. and what a refreshing start its been to the new rugby league season, and the reigning super league champions st helens were stunned by a last minute drop goal in their match against leeds rhinos — the team they beat in last year's grand final. blake austin was the man who put the ball between the sticks, for the rhinos with just seconds left on the clock. that was leeds' first win of the season and a first defeat for saints who, just a couple of weeks ago, were crowned the best

club side in the world. sometimes you get a hangover from achievements like that, they've done so much, so early in the season. the table looks great for warrington wolves. you are appreciating extraordinary achievements free, don't you? why not? in sport and the rest of life. tell me more. a former gurkha — who lost both his legs while serving in afghanistan — is hoping to become the first above—the—knee double amputee to climb mount everest next month. hari budha magar had planned to reach the summit in 2018, but faced a legal battle after nepal banned people with certain disabilities, from climbing the world's highest peak. luke hanrahanjoined him in training. a strict training regimen, which former soldier hari hopes will

yes, importantly, next week, if you're going to the mountains in scotland, the weather could be tricky as it gets much colder with some snow. this was the picture just a short time ago in northumberland, we could see if you like rain showers here coming in, for many parts of the country may well still drive to the rest of the day, a lot of cloud, may be some sunshine across western parts of scotland, but for many of was a cloudy, a few showers in northern and eastern scotland coming into eastern parts of england. the winds are light today. temperatures have not changed at all, really, overthe today. temperatures have not changed at all, really, over the past few days, typically 7—9 this afternoon. overnight tonight we keep generally cloudy skies, then we can see a few more showers arriving as well, there could turn wintry of the higher parts of scotland, where dust clouds break will see that i am, a lot of

cloud tomorrow, and thicker to give us more showers around, maybe something brighter with some sunshine across central southern scotland, even northern ireland and later in the north—west of england, but on the hole that will be cloudy again, and ifanything but on the hole that will be cloudy again, and if anything the temperatures may be a shade lower tomorrow, 6—7 30 typically. colder weather to come into next week, this is when the weather really starts to change, bring the risk of some snow in some eyes and frost widely as well, all because we will find a northerly wind bringing cold air all the way down from the arctic, that will push down across the whole country, and things start to get colder across most parts of scotland, on sunday night, following the band of wet weather here. there is a weather front weaving its way southwards on that mixture of rain, sleet and some snow, that will move down through scotland into northern ireland into northern england and wales on monday, to the south temperatures may be 9, and snow showers in northern scotland, into

tuesday the weather front is here across southern england and the channel, elsewhere sunshine, lots of snow showers in northern scotland, driving down some of those eastern coast and perhaps coming through the irish sea as well. inland areas may well be driver sunshine, temperatures a 5 on the thermometer, but if you're outside in the cold wind from the arctic it is going to feel much colder, and a reminder finally where we have met office yellow warnings for snow and ice for monday and tuesday, so northern and eastern scotland in the north—east of england bearing the brunt of the bad weather, could be as much as 20 centimetres of snow over the hills in northern scotland, elsewhere the snow, not really too much of that on monday or tuesday, but for all of us next week it will be colder, could be snow further south later on in the week. at the moment, a lot of uncertainty about that, but maybe when i'm back tomorrow we will have

more. we will continue to keep an eye on all of that as it develops over the weekend and next week. the film industry's biggest night of the year — the oscars — takes place next weekend, and nominated for the first time, after a career spanning more than a0 years, will be the british actor bill nighy. he's been nominated for his role in the film living. the british author kazuo ishiguro, who wrote the screenplay, has also been nominated. they've been talking to our los angeles correspondent sophie long. mr williams, a bureaucrat in 1950s london, has resigned himself to an ordinary, repetitive life. it's only when he's told he'll soon die that he realises he's forgotten how to live. it's an adaptation of a film made in kazuo ishiguro's native japan more than 70 years ago, with the lead

history, has always been very intense about making the gender split at the hospital is equal as possible, it was been done, and i think having three headliners something they have done without thinking about that. if you look at the rest of the bill at glastonbury, the rest of the bill at glastonbury, the gender split is really strong, liz —— lizzo is going to be there, glastonbury does a betterjob than almost all the other festivals, if you go back as far as the 805, suzanne vega, for example, something are aware of, giving female artist has arrived through the ranks and create a generation of headliners, and a lot of major festivals, not glastonbury, do tend towards the safer, traditional acts that headline for a long time. the industry is trying to change, you

can feel that across lots of festivals, but this is probably more down to the headline are pulling out then they am intensely going, it's going to be an all—male headline list. going to be an all-male headline list. �* , . ~ going to be an all-male headline list. �*, ., ,, ., ,., , list. let's talk about the slots, we've had _ list. let's talk about the slots, we've had kylie, _ list. let's talk about the slots, we've had kylie, dolly - list. let's talk about the slots, we've had kylie, dolly parton,| list. let's talk about the slots, - we've had kylie, dolly parton, and cat stevens this year. talk to us about that. cat stevens this year. talk to us about that-— about that. the headliners are important. — about that. the headliners are important, but _ about that. the headliners are important, but it's _ about that. the headliners are important, but it's not - about that. the headliners are important, but it's notjust - about that. the headliners are i important, but it's notjust about those acts. this light has been almost as important, you mentioned dolly parton, when she played, i believe it is the biggest audience a customary has ever witnessed in one place, so even more than the people who had learned that year, diana ross was spectacular, and it also shows the breadth of appeal glastonbury, there will be people who are not familiar with cat stevens, did not realise in the 705 it was one of the world's most successful singer songwriters who will see him and realise there are songs of his that they like that they weren't even aware of. it tends

announced. when i was in glastonbury last year reporting for bbc six music we decided to visit every single stage at the festival. first of all we can find out anybody who knew exactly how many stages there were, that's a big it is, ithink knew exactly how many stages there were, that's a big it is, i think we visited hundred and 50, all the way, the scope of the festival is absolutely huge, there is an enormous diversity of nationality and genre and age, and that's one of the things and makes it such a brilliant festival.— brilliant festival. music worlds collide, that's _ brilliant festival. music worlds collide, that's one _ brilliant festival. music worlds collide, that's one of - brilliant festival. music worlds collide, that's one of the - brilliant festival. music worlds collide, that's one of the joys | brilliant festival. music worlds i collide, that's one of the joys of the whole thing. collide, that's one of the 'oys of the whole thing.�* the whole thing. absolutely, it sounds a bit _ the whole thing. absolutely, it sounds a bit like _ the whole thing. absolutely, it sounds a bit like a _ the whole thing. absolutely, it sounds a bit like a sort - the whole thing. absolutely, it sounds a bit like a sort of - the whole thing. absolutely, it l sounds a bit like a sort of fanboy thing, because i've been going since 1993, i think, thing, because i've been going since 1993, ithink, reporting on thing, because i've been going since 1993, i think, reporting on it to the bbc for over ten years now, but i genuinely believe it's very special, magicalfestival, but it's notjust special, magicalfestival, but it's not just about the music, special, magicalfestival, but it's notjust about the music, you have circus fields in theatre and

performance art and comedy and spoken words, the kids field in arts and crafts, a colossal undertaking. evenif and crafts, a colossal undertaking. even if you don't like the headliners, there is so much to do and witness anyway. the bbc is pretty good at putting on the red button a lot of whole kind of thing, we are quite good communicating the scale of the whole thing. glastonbury at home is a great thing. 1993 as the last time i went to customary, so you never know we may have bumped into each other in the field somewhere! what may have bumped into each other in the field somewhere!— may have bumped into each other in the field somewhere! what you are a member of it? _ the field somewhere! what you are a member of it? not _ the field somewhere! what you are a member of it? not a _ the field somewhere! what you are a member of it? not a lot, _ the field somewhere! what you are a member of it? not a lot, that's - the field somewhere! what you are a member of it? not a lot, that's all i member of it? not a lot, that's all we not member of it? not a lot, that's all we got time _ member of it? not a lot, that's all we got time for. _ we got time for. we are seductive. that's all from breakfast will be back tomorrow.
